Hello,
I have a radeon 4670 with passive cooling for quietness. What video card would give an upgrade in performance and could still be passively cooled?

I agree with those recommendations but would like to point out that the 6570 is just one rung up from the 4670 on Tom's hierarchy chart: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-performance-radeon-geforce,3018-7.html

It does have DX11 but usually moving up only one rung is considered not worth the trouble. The 5670 is two rungs up so you might consider that more seriously. Myself, I'm not sure I'd trust passive cooling on that...
